Actress/singer Brooke Scher

In honor of the 2010 Teen Choice Awards Nominees and Presenters, California Queen dazzles A-list celebrities and young Hollywood stars with a red carpet Talent Swag Social.

TeAmo and Bellaboo were the headline sponsors at this chic summer social off the Sunset Strip in the City of Angels at The London West Hollywood Hotel.

But the most important aspect of this swag-filled celebrity event is the awareness that it helped raise for these two important charities and causes: 

Children of the Night

The charity “Children of the Night” is fighting to rescue America’s lost children from prostitution. Dr. Lois Lee created this charity and they have rescued over 10,000 children. They need your help to help these ‘throwaway’ children  that have no one to take care of them. The average age of these children are 11 – 14 years old! Child prostitutes require specialized care for effective intervention. Most of the children victimized by prostitution were first victimized by a parent or early caregiver. Most have been tortured by treacherous pimps, and many testify in lengthy court proceedings against the pimps who have forced them to work as prostitutes. Please help this worthy cause. You can go to their Facebook page to find out how you can help or call 800 551 1300 to make a donation. www.childrenofthenight.org

Sara Rae Non-Profit

Lisa Bingham - The California Queen!

The California Queen, hostess of the event, Lisa Bingham, founded this charity in honor of her sister, Sara Rae, who changed her life when she was born and she changed her life when she left this earth.  In honor of Sara, California Queen (ME) will do what ever it takes to help America’s youth have a chance for a sober life with a sober house in her name. Please look for their next Talent Swag Social in honor of the 2011 Grammy Awards and benefit concert to support www.SaraRae.org.com

Presenting Sponsors

Bellaboo Natural Skin Care System – the first skin care system created for teen girls that is natural, teen and totally works. Bella is a simple three-step natural skin care system for all skin types created as specially to nurture and nourish young skin.

Snezna Kerekovic, Bella’s creator and founder, worked as a beauty editor for years. When she had her own daughter, she realized there was nothing on the market that she would recommend to her. All that was available were only products packed full of chemicals that she didn’t want on her daughter.  So she created her own all-natural skin care system for young girls. It’s designed to care for young girl’s skin and to give girls the best start possible for gorgeous youthful skin for years to come.

Celebrities at the suite got the Bellaboo Natural 3-step natural Skin Care System as well as  E Z Blitz – designed to blitz zips and balance skin; use it as a spot treatment on pimples…no chemicals, all natural! www.Bellaboobabe.com
